The medieval church in Burelles, dedicated to Saint-Martin, got fortified within the 16th and 17th century. The first floor of the tower is equipped with fireplaces and rooms for the refugees. The Thiérache area in Northern France has lots of fortified churches. A panoramic road, named "Route des Eglises Fortifiées" connects many of them. Just follow the brown sign (right).
